Chapter 4 — Little Cong Gia Comes to Pray Than

"Little master, do you think I'm easy to bully, so you just grab an idiot like me to pluck my feathers?" Hearing that, he immediately raised three fingers above his head, with a serious look on his face: "Absolutely no such intention! I, Quan Mac Nhiem, swear to heaven..." "Stop it." I interrupted him. "In the past three days, the amount of money has been nearly five hundred taels. Do you think my family opened a bank account?" He hesitated for a moment, then suddenly approached. close, the corners of my eyes curled slightly, carrying a bit of cunning and carelessness. "So... should I pay her myself?" I jumped back in panic: "No, no! You're not worth that much!" Not knowing if I stepped on a loose green tile under my foot, my body staggered, about to fall backwards. He was quick and quick, immediately hugged my waist, pulling me into his arms. The two of them immediately got very close, so close that I could clearly see the shadow of his thin eyelashes falling on his eyelids, and there was also a slightly stunned look in his eyes. Our four eyes looked at each other, for some reason my heart beat a little faster. Surely he was angered by his boldness. Just angry! "Tri Vi?" A familiar voice came from behind. I quickly escaped from Quan Mac Nhiem's arms. Looking back, the elder brother and Luc Sung An were standing shoulder to shoulder a few steps away. 11Today the elder brother was wearing a light blue dress, with gentle facial features. His eyes glanced back and forth between me and Quan Mac Nhiem, covering his mouth and smiling softly. "No wonder Tri Vi has been going out every day these past few days, it turns out she has a little master as company." I coughed, pretending to be calm: "There's a dragon boat race today, so I went out to watch the excitement." Luc Sung An's eyes slowly slid past my face, then fell on Quan Mac Nhiem. When she opened her mouth, her voice was full of sarcasm. "Tri Y, didn't you still ask me to find a marriage for your sister? Now it seems, she has found it herself." "It's just that the threshold of the Duke's palace is so high, can a daughter of a fifth-rank mandarin as small as her be able to step in?" The elder brother's face changed slightly, his voice also became a little colder: "Does Your Highness value family background that much?" Anger in Luc Sung An's eyes. even more intensely, he blurted out: "I'm just a fish in the water, how can I climb to the bird in the sky? It's just a vain dream." The brother lowered his eyes, seeming a bit disappointed: "Is that so, your highness? My status seems to be very low." At this time, Luc Sung An suddenly realized that the phrase "fish in the water" had brought both the brother and I into it. He quickly took a step forward: "Tri Y, I'm not talking about you, I..." The brother reluctantly smiled: "The dragon boat race is about to start, I'll go watch first." After saying that, he turned and left. Luc Sung An was about to chase after him, but Quan Mac Nhiem called from behind. "Brother." His steps stopped and he turned to look at him. The usual carelessness on Quan Mac Nhiem's face shrank a bit. "If the mountain bird doesn't enter the pond, I will turn into a fish and fly chasing the clouds. If I don't try, how do I know I can't reach it?" Luc Sung An's face changed slightly. Seeing his brother disappear in the crowd, he stopped talking and strode in his direction. It took me a long time to regain my composure. The underwater fish in Luc Sung An's mouth was clearly pointing at me. What did Quan Mac Nhiem get himself into? He seemed to see through the confusion in my eyes, bowed his head, blinked at me. "I like that. What, do you have an opinion?" After speaking, he clasped his hands behind his back and leisurely walked forward. After two steps, he turned around. "Let's go, the dragon boat race is about to start. I invite you, this time I really bring money." After the dragon boat race, Quan Mac Nhiem indeed came to pay. He bet five hundred taels on the boat to win first place, won a lot, and turned around

immediately stuffed a stack of checks into my hand. I picked up the thick stack of bills, counted them once, my eyes immediately lit up. "Five thousand taels? Little master, this is too much... Or should I give you half?" He clasped his hands behind his back, raised his chin slightly, with a hint of pride between his eyebrows. "No need. You can keep it." Seeing that I still wanted to refuse, he said casually: "At best, invite me to have a few more meals later." I was overjoyed and immediately happily agreed. But after entering the door, I suddenly felt something was wrong. I lent him money, I invited him to dinner; He paid me money, and in the end, I invited him to dinner. In a big circle, both I paid for the food and I owed him a favor. How could it be that the one who suffered in the end was me? I sighed sadly. That's it, who said the amount of money he gave was really too much? 12 At the royal palace, the queen heard that the crown prince had recently been intimate with a female daughter, so she summoned Luc Sung An to ask about it. If that woman has a noble status, she will choose to be the crown prince. If you come from a normal background, you can be a concubine. After hearing those words, the elder brother did not step out of his room for several days. Every day he sat in front of the window, strumming his guitar, confiding heavily.
